Let’s be honest—life is messy. And optimism? It’s not always easy.
But what if optimism wasn’t about pretending things are fine…
What if it was about choosing to believe in something better—even when things are not okay?
In this episode of Dare to Care with Michelle, I’m getting real with you about what optimism really is (and what it’s not).
We’re talking:
Why “just think positive” doesn’t work 🙄
How optimism is actually a form of power
And the difference between probability (math) and possibility (🔥 your magic)
I’m sharing childhood reflections, my favorite quote (yes, I said it), and the powerful story of how Mignon François turned $5 and faith into a million-dollar cupcake biz—because that’s what belief can do.
Optimism is choosing possibility over probability.
And you, my friend, are allowed to believe again.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
